More than half of my time in Yellowstone is gone, and I realized I have yet to post some of the stupidity that I have to put up with as an employee here. For your enjoyment, here is a short list of some of the questions I have been asked:
Is there nuts in the maple nut ice cream?
Have you ever seen Old Faithful go off?
What's the difference between bison and buffalo?
Is the geyser around here? (my store is a two minute walk from the geyser)
What time of year does Old Faithful shoot the highest?
How do you get to the geyser from here? (I can see it from where I stand at work)
What time do you turn the geyser on in the morning?
You mean I have to pay for the soda I put in my personal water bottle?
Do you make a vegetarian turkey sandwich?
What else is there to do in Yellowstone besides watch Old Faithful?
Is this where we get the ice cream? (standing in front of the coolers in the ice cream loft)
What is a buffalo chip? "answer" Why would you make ice cream out of that?!
Why don't you call Moose Tracks, Moose Scat instead?
What is the geyser made of?
And these are just a few of the many questions I have been asked, and had to remain straight-faced and professional while answering. Hope you enjoyed them as much as I did.
Love it! People are great! Hope you are having so much fun! I can't believe that it is halfway over too. We haven't even been up to the park this year yet. If we need directions to the geyser, I will come straight to you! :)
